MEMBER EVENT: Out Loud HSV - Poetry Slam Sunday

Calling all raw-voiced, chatter-teethed, brave-blooded poets! Join us for an action-packed, hour-long poetry slam! Poetry Slam is the competitive art of performance poetry designed to engage both poets and audience, where participants are judged by members of the audience to advance rounds until a winner is chosen. The winner will receive glory and celebration, along with a $10 roll of quarters provided by our sponsor, Karma Rags.

Poets, this event is open sign up, so if you would like to compete just bring three poems (one for each round, if you make it to all three rounds) and show up early to assure you have a space. Each piece should be no longer than 3 minutes or points will be taken off your score. No props, no costumes – just you, the mic, and your words.

Audience, you are vital, too. Whether you are a judge or just a raucous viewer, we need your love and encouragement to keep the energy high and the momentum rolling. Get loud, get rowdy, and show your support for the people on stage pouring out their hearts to you.

All donations will go directly to the Flying Monkey Theatre for use of the venue.
